This might be my showstopper Quanta issue on KDE 4.3 if the 3.5x
dependencies aren't in the Ubuntu Main repository for Ubuntu 9.04. But
see below.

Webkit is going to be great if the ports ever get synchronized. But
they aren't, so different ports produce different results. We need a
Webkit standard.

And that will support the other software that you need. I'll hazard a
guess that keeping all of the above running on the same distro runs
into issues at some faily near point in the future as other apps
update. I take it that development on Quanta 3.x is at or near the
end?

I was about 20 pages into a rant in response, but thought better of
it. If you love it, use it, but there's a snowball's chance in Hell of
me coming around to your opinion. :-) I've already made my decision;
this user isn't riding along with KDE 4.
May you enjoy your journey.
Best regards,
Paul
